Problems solved by technology

However, the asymmetry of the reflectivity of the front and rear cavity surfaces causes the optical power density distribution along the resonant cavity inside the chip to be severely uneven, and the closer to the front cavity, the higher the power density.
The current density inside the chip is generally uniform along the direction of the resonant cavity, which causes the spatial hole burning effect, resulting in less carrier consumption and more remaining carriers in the area close to the rear cavity of the chip, and the current leaks, spontaneously radiates or non-conductively. Radiative recombination in the form of recombination, thereby reducing the efficiency of electro-optical conversion

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductor laser devices, and in particular relates to a high-efficiency semiconductor laser. Background technique [0002] Semiconductor lasers are widely used in pumping solid-state and fiber lasers, material processing, and laser medical treatment due to their advantages such as compact structure, low cost, and easy control of the optical field. Among them, the strip-type semiconductor laser has a simple manufacturing process and high electro-optical efficiency, and is the main device structure used in high-efficiency semiconductor lasers. [0003] Usually, bar-type semiconductor lasers need to vapor-deposit AR high-transmittance film on the front cavity surface, and evaporate HR high-reflectivity film on the rear cavity surface, so that the laser can output from the front cavity surface. However, the asymmetry of the reflectivity of the front and rear cavity surfaces causes the optical power densi...
